 Hello, everybody. This is Nerdiversal right before the video I just want to let you guys know that the sound quality in this clip is absolutely fucking atrocious So just bear with me and let's get on to the ramen It's fucking Nerdiversal so this weekend Small-ish city, it's not that tiny but we don't have that much ramen. We have a lot of ramen But they're not that great. We're going to Ellen's ramen. See I don't know if you know this about me But I love ramen so We're gonna go try it out and we're going so we should be going to this place called that I saw online that a lot of people liked Daikokia is one that's get talked about a lot So we're gonna go there too and then recommended to me by a friend was Sujita ramen So we're gonna go hit that place up too. So Here we are in LA I'm waiting for my boyfriend to get some parking tickets for us so we can park here legally and not get towed away Look at these buildings, dude I've never been in a big city like this before my my city has like a few tall buildings And like they're not nearly this tall. These are tall. There's the Avengers Tower over there I mean not really but like it could be in theory because it's tall enough. Alright, so we're at Menno right now And it's our very first day so So I ordered the House special because I feel like that'd be the best measure of like how good this place is but I hear it's really good So now we're just gonna wait for the ramen some takoyaki for an appetizer There it is aren't they beautiful pretty broth pretty meat Sexy egg that's gonna be good behold sexy noodle This is the tonkotsu bar that my boyfriend ordered that one's really really good This one is mine right here. This is the Tokushima, which was their house specialty also Like they're so delicious and then these noodles they just kind of hold on to the broth so perfectly and they're like firm juice Which I really really like Here's their piece of pork. It looks so tender That is so tender That is so tender Super cleaning and super eating. It almost has like the smallest of it and like a porky flavor Oh So that was no ramen um that shit was awesome That was like the best ramen that I've had so far because the one that we have in the valley is like it's good but it's not as good as that so Tomorrow we're gonna be trying either daikokuyah or tsujita ramen. Okay, so now we're at daikokuyah ramen Daikokuyah actually It's kind of cheating because we're not in LA right now We're in El Monte because that's a little closer to where we're staying right now And we're tired as hell so we came to this one this time, but it's basically the same thing They're all the same daikokuyah. So we actually just ordered and we ordered their specialty Which was the daikokuyah ramen Again, because it's like the best taste of what they have but now we're just gonna wait for the ramen and it goes in that way Is that good? I don't know if this is level or if I'm tripping Look at this. We just got it. It's another tonkotsu And look it's got the swirl chashu, which I really like so um Let's dig in Break open this egg right here It's a sesame seeds. Yeah, it kind of tastes like sesame oil Honestly first bite It's not super tender, but it's so pretty good. So we ended up coming back to the house because From being honest, I had some not good words to say about daikokuyah It was good. It was good And maybe I'm just speaking because I had mental first and it was real real good But this it it wasn't as good It there wasn't there wasn't as much cream to it like it wasn't as creamy and thick the egg was really good The egg was like beautiful And although it kind of fell off like each other like it kind of came apart really easily The pork wasn't that good the chashu wasn't that good the noodles They kind of tasted like they still had flour on them like they were still thick They almost tasted like kind of undercooked. They were good I like their texture, but the the taste was um, it just was too Noodle-y if that makes sense Rossi said a little bit peppery. It didn't really it didn't really strike me as Different, but I still that's not to say that I didn't enjoy the bowl It was a good bowl, especially after a long day And it was a really good priced bowl I think it was like 11 50 to 12 dollars was that is that true? Yeah, 12 dollars for a ramen which is a really good price because they do give you a lot And they give me more than meadow did it was good but It could have been better All right, everybody. So our last day here We're hitting up the last place and it was recommended to us. That's why we're hitting it up last So hopefully it's the best so we're gonna go try it out right now We just ordered right now and I know I'm supposed to be rating ramen But I really wanted to try Tsukemen so I'm gonna do that and my boyfriend is getting ramen So it's excited. So here's the Tsukemen. They brought it a helifast, by the way It's like five minutes after we ordered, but the shit is This is the ramen right here What your mushrooms are mom the other places we went to they didn't really have mushrooms so Finally glad to have mushrooms. Oh, that's fucking delicious. Holy shit. It's very fat It's very fat, and it's like a hella salty and like it's got a lot of flavor in it So I don't know about trying just the broth by itself because I know it's supposed to be very thick Tsukemen I'm just gonna give it a taste and then we'll try it with like the noodles and the meat and stuff Ooh, you can already see how thick that is Oh, that's thick. It tastes like um tastes hella like dashi, but that's real good So these noodles are a lot thicker than the one that they give you for the ramen, but So let's go ahead and let's go ahead and dip this chashu that I haven't tried yet My boyfriend already took a bite of it, but he said it was good. So let's see. Oh, Jesus Oh, that's fucking delicious. So it was like hella fatty where the where there's fatty was just like melting your mouth And the meat was so tender. Try these noodles now It's a really bad one there. Let's go That's delicious The noodles are so chewy and they're so good All right, so let's open up this egg. Let's see. Oh, that's so pretty Okay, let's try this bad boy. Oh, it's delicious too. Okay, so now I'm gonna try my boyfriend's ramen Oh, yeah, that's good and grabs onto the broth real real well Oh, yeah, that's real good So I'm gonna finish the rest of this and then I will check in later with you guys nice Thanks So we got machi. You can hardly see it. Oh, there we go. That's better buddy machi suji the ramen Okay first impression It was good, especially that's and the ramen is really good. The only thing is that I think After a little while they start to become too much Um, so this is probably just like a personal preference thing But I felt like the flavor started becoming a little too much by the end of the sukemen Because at first I was like, oh, this tastes like dashi. This is pretty good This is delicious And then by the end I was like, holy shit the fucking dashi and this took him in And then in the ramen it was like, oh, this tastes kind of like soy and like mushroomy And then by the end it just smelled mushroom I think it was was just kind of overtaking the bowl because I don't know if you've ever tried black ear mushrooms, but they are Stinky, so yeah, it was it was really good But it just over over a little bit of time. I think it was a little bit too much. Okay, babe Uh On the count of three we'll say who we thought was the best ramen. Yeah, ready three two one The best we've had in LA though, Meno. Yeah, Meno. Meno was really good. It had kind of a sweetness to it It was fatty. It was creamy Really the best onkatsu that I've ever had the noodles were just on point the toppings were on point Yeah, that's it. That shit was delicious. So if you guys want to come to LA and eat some ramen I highly recommend Meno and that concludes today's video Sugita had some amazing sukemen though. Yeah, honestly, sukemen was so good The sukemen was hella good It like I said, it just becomes a little bit too much, but it was hella good I hope you guys enjoyed this video and um, if you guys like stuff like this Subscribe, I like ramen. Maybe I'll make more if you all subscribe. Okay. I'll see you all later. Bye
